Russell Martin was still slated to be our long term option. Of course, that didn&#39;t work out.Ernesthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16702907938750062750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26690188.post-73340185774795634862011-11-15T23:04:32.006-08:002011-11-15T23:04:32.006-08:00No doubt, if the option is trade Santana for Blake...No doubt, if the option is trade Santana for Blake, then we obviously keep the catcher. But, what if trading Santana and 4 other prospects not named Kemp or Kershaw got us Sabathia in 2008.
